Description Awards: 92 Points Robert Parker Wine Advocate Report An oak-matured Syrah from a single vineyard, honouring the Malan family’s ancestral home—named after their coat of arms and the French village of Merindol. Deep maroon with crimson hints, this Syrah offers an aromatic mix of spiced red cherry, raspberry cordial, and a touch of violets. The palate showcases red cherry and blackberry, layered with subtle liquorice, soft round tannins, and lively acidity for a vibrant, balanced, and fruit-forward experience. Serve at 12-14 Deg. Delicious with Karoo lamb shank, grilled pepper steak or aubergine and porcini mushroom “meatballs” in a tomato-based sauce. Cellaring potential 8-10 years.
